A Believer in Disguise
This Woodland Camouflage is practical, sturdy and versatile in such a tight package, with at least 6 strap-down possibilities. Each length is doubly-layered for concealment opportunities. It also packs away quickly for immediate departures. Get yourself 2 or 3 of these and you can cover a large camp area, making each a Jason Bourne quality item.
A Town Like Alice, 1981 Original Mini-Series, Bryan Brown, Helen Morse, DVD

A Copy Unlike Alice
This version, the longest and most balanced telling of Nevil Shute's "A Town Like Alice" is the most faithful but overdue adaptation of this war-time drama/romance, so deserving a finer digital transfer than this tape-to-tape one. I own a tape to dvd transfer and its much sharper. It is inexcusable for the general public to wait so long for a direct digital transfer that will enhance the allure of Helen Morse,the machismo of Bryan Brown and the sights and sounds of Malaysia more completely. Come on, U.K, get off your arses and give this marvelous cast and crew the digital quality this wonderful yarn deserves, so you can squeeze the last farthing out of the dated black and white film with the same title. After you see this adaptation you will throw away "An Officer and a Gentleman" and any other frothy Hollywood 80s film.

Story of G.I. Joe, Robert Mitchum, 1945, DVD New

The Real Grunt
"The Story of G.I. Joe" is one of the most hard-to-find, rarely shown WWII war films of all time and revered for its brutal realism. Although one of Robert Mitchum's earliest films, he nearly grabbed an Oscar for his performance. In this film, they pay tribute to the late war correspondent, Ernie Pyle, who wrote alongside his 'men' in several theaters of conflict before dying on a Pacific island at the close of WWII. Its battle sequences begin in North Africa (29 Palms sometimes) and move to Sicily and Italy and they convey the trials and tribulations of the dog-soldiers with great humanity and compassion. Ernie Pyle's actual words help considerably throughout. All the gear you see, motor pool trucks to weaponry, are authentic in every way. All the top-down protocols relating to rank and privilege remain. There are no fat 'actors' in this war film; in fact over 125 men who inhabit the scenes were current European veterans of the conflict who did not survive. This is the way it was with the guts, courage and glory intact.
